This is a fun question. Most Chinese people have never learned Chinese kung fu.

If you want to see real Chinese kung fu, you can visit places where Chinese kung fu is represented, such as Shaolin Temple.
3. What is Shaolin Kung Fu?
Shaolin Kung Fu is one of the famous martial arts schools in China, with a long history and wide influence, and is an important part of traditional Chinese martial arts. The "Shaolin Fist" and "Shaolin Cudgel" occupy an important page in the history of Chinese martial arts. Shaolin Kung Fu originated from the ancient Shaolin Temple, and thus got its name. Shaolin Temple is located in Songshan Mountain, Dengfeng County, Henan Province. It was founded in 495 A.D. and was built by the emperor at that time to accommodate the Indian monk Batuo who came to Songshan to settle and preach. After Batuo Master presided over the Shaolin Temple, many people came to the temple and were ordained as Shaolin monks.

Legend has it that in 527 A.D., the Indian monk Dharma came to Songshan Shaolin Temple to teach Buddhist Zen Buddhism. He faced the wall for nine years, meditated, and cultivated his mind. He was revered as the first ancestor of Chinese Buddhist Zen Buddhism. In those years, Dharma spent his days in meditation and was inevitably tired of his muscles and bones. When he was preaching the sutras, he found that some of his disciples were drowsy and mentally uninspired after sitting in meditation for a long time. In order to drive away tiredness, keep fitness, and protect the temple, Dharma and other people imitate the movements of ancient Chinese exercise and compiled them into fitness activities to teach monks. This is the prototype of "Shaolin Kung Fu". Later, after long-term practice, synthesis, enrichment, improvement by generations of monks and disciples, it gradually formed a set of boxing, up to more than a hundred kinds. Shaolin kung fu is rich in content and has many routines. According to character, it can be roughly divided into internal, external, hard, qing, qigong, and so on. Internal kung fu is based on the practice of essence. External kung fu and Hard kung fu mostly refer to the exercise of a certain part of the body's fierce force. Qing Kung specializes in longitudinal jumping and super distance. According to the techniques, there are more than one hundred kinds of boxing, stick fighting, gun fighting, knife fighting, sword fighting, sparring, apparatus and apparatus training, etc.

7. What are the highest-rated Kung Fu movies?
Bruce Lee's "Enter the Dragon". This movie is a work that combines Bruce Lee's kung fu and film narrative. The film attempts to incorporate complex character relationships and storylines. Although the core is still Bruce Lee's kung fu, the emotional motive is more human.

Jackie Chan's "Drunken Fist". Jackie Chan's action humor, without too much language, can be experienced by any country. The biggest highlight of this film is still the action design, fist to fist, extremely difficult. And many Japanese anime games are also inspired by drunken fist.

Jet Li's "Jingwu Hero". Although martial arts occupy more than half of the space of this film, you will not feel bored. The excellent rhythm control, meticulous characterization, and of course the sincere national sentiment of "Jingwu Hero", all of which make this work not only become the best kung fu masterpiece of Jet Li but also forged the pinnacle of action films in the golden age of Hong Kong cinema.

Donnie Yen's "Ip Man 1". This movie is one of the earliest batches of films that brought the exploits of Ip Man to the big screen. Donnie Yen gave the classic long-lasting impression of Ip Man and the Wing Chun fighting style, which also created many famous scenes. The film combines the historical background of the time so that the audience can feel the blood boiling when watching it, but also not overly melodramatic. Society at that time did need the appearance of heroes, and the setting like Ip Man filled such a gap very well.

Stephen Chow's "Kung Fu". The description of the plot, characterization, humorous lines, creative special effects, warm emotional portrayal of the film has become a classic of Stephen Chow.
